It's cold in here

[layla]

The fire in the boiler apparently didn't catch when I fed it this morning, so it and the house have been sitting all day at -20(ish) with no source of heat. And it's freakin' cold in here. The thermostat goes down to 50F, and the needle is huddling cozily at the bottom of the scale.

I have a pretty high cold tolerance, but this is less than comfortable. It's so cold I don't want to type. All I want to do is huddle. But I have to finish Freebird for tomorrow.

At least it's not literally below freezing in here. Water sources actually *would* freeze in the cabin when I was a kid.

*shiver*

No problem! I love talking about living there. :) We were in the boonies -- about 30 minutes from Chazy, which was a pretty damn small town, and 40 minutes from Plattsburgh, which was a slightly bigger damn small town. :P I'm not so sure where it was in relation to Ithaca, but we were about 15 minutes from the Canadian border into Quebec. I loved growing up there, but it's very povery-stricken, and there aren't many jobs to go after.
